Jenn, I pm'd you my "real name". Bet your kids are getting so big! Lucy is great and I''m feeling pretty good, too. Ready to have this baby in some ways, but smart enough to know that I should enjoy just one kid for as long as I can! Thanks for bumping us up!

Hello all! Hope everyone is doing great! Things are good here. Noah is at that angry toddler age where he is starting to throw tantrums when he doesn't get what he wants. Sometimes it is hilarious. So much drama from my little angel!

Jenn - I will PM you my real name. I hardly ever check this site, but keep up with FB.

I POAS on Thursday (way too early) and this morning - both neg. with Amelie the home test was a strong positive 2 days before the blood test so it is not hopeful this time.

Never mind - I just can't imagine doing another cycle as I am now 40 (ouch!) , taking Ams in for scans, juggling work, DH's job is making him work long hours - I can't see it happening.

I am ok with it though - it makes me realise even more what a miracle our little girl is and how incredibly lucky we are too have her - I am giving her even more hugs and kisses than usual this weekend.

She's been so good this afternoon - I dragged her around in her stroller for over 2 hours in crowded Melbourne round all the shops and she didnt whinge once - what a little gem.

Re the blood tests - it was over about 3 weeks while they were tracking the LH surge which started quite high but then didn't go anywhere for a while and then finally did and that's when we had the transfer - also had progesterone checked - all was fine, hence the natural thaw cycle - just looks like the embie itself wasn't upto it.

Had a 2 or 3 scans too - the first with Ams present and she freaked out - completely out of character - didn't like what Dr D was doing to her mummy which made me realise I didn't want to take her to them again...

Hope all well with you - Rio must be 2 now - or is it 3 - I have totally lost count!

Sorry that the signs are not looking too good this time. Amelie sounds like a great little girl. Rio is hard work when I take him shopping - I usually have to give him lots of Wiggles stuff to look at - we are going to the wiggles tomorrow actually, very excited!

Wow, scans again huh, that's a blast from the past. So not looking forward to that! I will do my blood tests (to check on iron, thyroid and stuff) then go to the clinic early next year I think, may make appointme tomorrow!

Well I certainly hope the official test is positive, otherwise I am glad that you have such a positive outlook - I know I am a lot less desperate now that I have my one lovely baby!

I am so sorry Angie. We will keep our fingers crossed for the "right" thing to happen on Thursday.
I know what you mean about taking your child with you to IVF stuff. My dd had to go with us for the past three. She did pretty good, but it is still stuff you hate her to experience.
I am going to be attempting again this summer, but have changed clinics so that I will be close to my mother and she can help out.

You have such a positive outlook on things. Just give Am's lots of extra hugs:)
